I have those on my truck. They're awesome! :rock:

do they make different styles of the 404? like tread style i guess?

All I can say is that my LS1 has a hard time spinning those gummy tires too many times. I am going to try it at the track tonight and see how hard they stick.

I changed to 305/55/18's, and they are awesome. I ditched the BFG kdw's for the Nittos.

I would just be careful about that width on a stock rim, I have them on 9" wheels, and that is just barely big enough.

they look sweet , are you going with a 305 with no lift?

My 285s are mounted on 10.5 wide rims.

that article there is fitment for stock 17" rims that come with the avalanche...dont know what width the stock rims are thou...discount tire will not mount anything thats not fitment by them because of the liability....

I used to have the 404's on my yukon. They grip pretty good. The problem i had is when I burned the back two off and went to try to find two more and couldn't because Nitto had discontinued that series. I ended up changing out all four to the 420's. the 420's are good tires and hook pretty damn good.

I got my 404s about 5 months ago. There wasn't any trouble getting mine. Discount tire had to pick them up at their warehouse but that only took about 2 hours. They wouldn't put them on the truck but they did mount them up. I have adapters/spacers on the truck so it was a liability issue. Their rules suck sometimes but the legal system we have in the US these days make it necessary to cover your ass in the corporate world.
